I am selling a brand new-in-box Garmin Nuvi 1690 GPS. This fantastic GPS connects to AT&T's Edge network to give you up to date traffic information. It also lets you use Google to search for your destination. Unlike TomTom Live which costs $10 a month, the service is free for two years and will cost $5 per month thereafter. The Google service also lets you check gas prices, local events, flight times and other useful information. The GPS also features millions of Points of Interest built into the memory for times when you may not want to use the Google service. I should also mention that while many modern day GPS systems advertise free traffic, they nearly always receive the information through RDS (FM radio). This information is far less detailed and never as recent as the type of traffic information in the 1690 that comes from a cell phone network. Also, it is much easier to get the AT&T signal in many areas than to catch an RDS transmission. The GPS comes with a window mount in the box. I will include a vent mount for free as well. The system is new and not refurbished. I'll send you my receipt in case you ever need the warranty. sold
